DHS Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

I can't see them pushing SWL for DHS into 2020.

Me either unless a ride system needs time consuming re engineering. If that's the case they will have run into the same problems in Disneyland first so the change wouldn't take as long at DHS to fix. That's the nice thing about Disneyland being ahead.

DLR SWL update - gives you an idea how massive the show building is.

Falcon is a multi level building (the ride system chambers are floor to roof in height) - the vast majority of it will be queue / preshows / ride systems.

The battle attraction is similar, possible 40% pre ride and 60% actual ride space with a ride vehicle garage too.

It looks like there is a second floor on the battle attraction as well as a large basement portion in some areas. Any chance there will be lifts to go up and down similar to how transformers does?

Every chance.

Is the show buildings the same size as Pandora's or bigger? It's interesting that the tread now is to have big pre-show's along with the ride. Hopefully the pre-show's do not overshadow the main ride.

Nothing in the post you're responding to is negative, and it ends on a positively upbeat note. Try actually reading what I wrote.

And my general attitude towards this in those "dozens of posts" has been it's not for me, it seems like it could be neat, I simply hope it doesn't come at the expense of other SW developments. You seem to have a massive chip on your shoulder because my adulation isn't pronounced enough, but I get the impression you tend to react like that.

They're mean to newbies on here, it means he likes you...

The battle ride show building is about 2 acres, Flight of Passage is about 1.1 acres.

Wow is all I can say to that

Like Star Tours, somehow I think they'd make some a situation such as enter from left, exit from right (through some "secret escape door.") It's the cheapest and most efficient option, but I'd love something more creative, out-of-the-box surprise.

I don't think so. The group on the ride should exit and then the (now empty) cockpit will continue to rotate to a new position where load will occur -- the doors will open to an empty cockpit that the riders will ride.

I would hope, but that is much more expensive. I'm afraid they will go for what's more time/cost effective.

If they were just going for what's cost effective then the cockpits wouldn't need to be constantly in motion at all. This is essentially a ride system riding another ride system. If they were just going for cost they could have eliminated the entire rotation aspect

Doctornick is correct.

Real question is.

Is Disney building Star Wars land with room to expand.?

Yes they are. In several directions if they wish to.

 

[ItlngrlBella]

Doctornick is correct.

This made my day! I'm glad I was wrong - will make for a much better immersion experience!
